I have it, i like it, ok its not as juiced up as a brenspeed or others, but who knows the real gains anyway...i feels much quicker and sounds great, no skipship...the big thing is. i have had it for 10k with zero issues....and i have my factory warranty. the exhaust in the pack is great too. sounds very nice. its the svt mufflers, from what i have heard they are basically the borla touring,,,

Ford will honor the factory warranty if the FRPP tune causes any failures?
I was of the understanding that FRPP is not Ford, they are aftermarket.
And since FRPP is not Ford, if it causes engine failure, Ford has the right to deny the warranty if the FRPP tune or parts are the cause of the failure.

I had the FRPP tune up until I put on the Boss 302 intake manifold. It was a major improvement in driveability - I have no idea whether it made more power or not. It was just "nicer to drive" than the factory tune.

Jim the FRPP tune will not cause engine failure, it is very mild. Most dealers wouldn't notice it anyway!
